Articles: Layout types

It's often important to code a fitting layout to your design, so everything shows to advantage and you get an ideal result.

DivLayers...
... are appropriate to align objects of the layout. If you are coding your content as div, too, you shouldn't forget that a div as a background is unicolored, unless you add a background image to the source code.

IFrames...
... are used at the time when the background is irregular. IFrames have a slightly narrow content for the most part. It is important, that the background part is added to the source text, so everything displays even in firefox.

Popups...
... are small windows, wich are opening separately. You should avoid to code a site as a popup completely, because with that you won't have much space for text. If you have lots of content, you may think about another type of layout.

Tables...
...Table layouts are well structured and allow you to use some options, that are not possible with other types of layouts (e.g. including of multiple tables).
